Historically, ia32-libs provided *all* of those libraries in one package. Ubuntu and Debian have now transitioned to a better method where the libraries are broken up into individual multi-arch packages so that other packages only have to pull in the ones they need.
Until all other packages use the new method however, there will be still some that depend on ia32-libs and expect that to provide everything they need. So the transitional version of that package depends on *all* the new multi arch packages. This is expected behavior until crossover is updated to use the new multi arch system, at which point it will depend directly in the libs it needs and ia32-libs can be removed completely.
